ART OR NOT YOU DECIDE.
Hello This piece is titled "Lioness at the Waterhole". This painting is an accurate rendition and has been created from an original photograph. Many artists use this procedure when creating their painting, using one or many photographs to provide the final piece of art. However neither my wife or myself are good with paints and this is actually a digitally produced painting. Now a great deal of time and work went into creating this painting (Digital Painting), whether or not the same time that it would take an actual artist to paint the same image I really don't know. As I already said I am not a painter. So what do you think, is it any less of an artistic piece because it is digitally created? Is it the paint itself that makes it art? Or is it the idea, the interpretation and the time taken that forms the art. Do the actual tools used for creation matter? Even painters have choices acrylics, oils, watercolours etc. Every choice would result in a different outcome, and could not the same be said for digital choices. Now I am in no way claiming to be a Rembrandt. However if someone looks at this image and would like it hanging on their wall, does it matter how it was made. Is not art in the eye of the beholder. OK I know it should be "beauty", but there you go I have just digitally remastered that to. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
